And lastly, Nephi. She\'s a mystery for now as we haven\'t experienced many fights with her, but from what I can tell, she has insane physical durability, is very agile, and has powerful Light and Dark Magic. She can shapeshift her body around as well and fire a powerful Magic Nuke too, the one she used to defeat that overpowered metallic golem I couldn\'t defeat back then. I think I\'ve seen her shapeshift her hands into blades too…

"We\'re done then." Said Aquarina. "Uwaahh… Sylphy can you clean me?"

Aquarina ran to my side, she was all soaked with fish guts.

"Yeah we are all kind of smelly right now, but we\'ll get even more nastier as we get into that dungeon, we better concentrate into that first." I said with a smile.

"Eeeeh?!" Asked Aquarina while wanting my attention.

"Alright fine. Here." I sighed, quickly using the [Clean] Spell. And then a few others more such as [Drain]. I am fairly sure she can do them herself but she likes me to do it.

"Phew… As good as new…" She sighed in relief.

"Can\'t you do it yourself?" Asked Zack in the distance.

"Yeah but if Sylphy does it its more special!" Aquarina said. "It\'s totally not the same when I do it…" Aquarina said, she really wanted my attention at the end.

"Anyways, let\'s quickly gather the last materials." Celeste said. She helped me store everything inside the Dimensional Bag, as we finally made our way to the Lake.

At the same time, I checked the system:

Ding!

[You and Your Party Defeated [Fishmen Magicians (Tier 3: Rank 3)] x20!]

[You and Your Party Defeated [Giant Crystal Alligator (Tier 3: Rank 6)] x10!]

[You gained 300000 EXP]

[Your Familiars have earned a large quantity of EXP!]

[Naturia] Level has increased from Level 22 to Level 23!]

[Ignatius] Level has increased from Level 22 to Level 23!]

[Furoh] Level has increased from Level 22 to Level 23!]

[Beelzebub] Level has increased from Level 22 to Level 23!]

[Curse] Level has increased from Level 22 to Level 23!]

Oh nice, everyone\'s only two levels off reaching Level 25, where they can all evolve once more… Ah, it\'s going to be a bit tedious to check what\'s the best evolution for them, but it still going to b quite fun at the end.

We made our way through the Rocky Valley and then reached the shores of he Lake at long last. In the way we were ambushed by large crabs named Raging Crabs, which are one-meter big crabs with big claws, they attack in big swarms, but at the end they were still Tier 2 Rank 1.

"Clank! Clank!"

They make sounds using their pincers and seem to run around us angrily, they were hissing at us even, as if trying to tell us that this wasn\'t our territory.

"Oi what\'s up with these lil\' guys?" Wondered Zack.

"They don\'t look that cool." Said Aquarina. "I think we can make them for lunch though~!"

"Ooh, they\'re small! Aren\'t they good enough for Zephy to try out fighting against?" Mist asked.

"That\'s a good idea." Celeste agreed. "Hey Sylphy, bring the little boy here so he can have a nice fight with them."

"They seem rather weak, yeah." Nephi agreed. "Master Zephy, what do you say?"

"Zephy, what do you think?" I asked my little brother.

He looked at the crabs slightly fearfully, but they were not freezing him in time like the massive Alligators or the spell casting Fishmen.

"I-I think I could give it a try!" Zephy armed himself with bravery.

"Alright then, there\'s one coming right at you!" Zack said, as Zephy noticed a big, red-colored Raging Crab approaching him. The crab was only a tiny bit larger than him.

"GRAAH!"

The crab approached angrily, as Zephy concentrated, furrowing his eyebrows. Darkness surged from within his hands and reached the tip of his rapier, as he moved swiftly with a single step forward. A gust of winds emerged around his body as he made his way towards the crab in a single second.

CLAASH!

"CRAAH…!"

The Crab slightly lost balance, but its hard chitinous exoskeleton was a bad match against the thin and weak rapier that Zephy got for himself. The crab moved forward rapidly, its pincers reaching Zephy and clanking angrily.

CLANK! CLANK!

"Uagh!"

Zephy slightly lost his balance, as darkness and blood magic gathered into his hands. Desperately, he shoot down a bullet of darkness and blood against the Crab, throwing it off its balance again.

BAAM!

"Now Zephy, aim at the mouth and eyes!" I said. "Be swift, remember the posture father taught you! Concentrate with your sword, dance with each technique!"

"Dance… Concentrate…!" Zephy rushed forward, his rapier quickly hitting the crab\'s eyes and destroying them. The crustacean angrily shook its body around, but Zephy quickly aimed at its mouth, unleashing several piercing attacks without much finesse against its interior.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"G R A A G G H H!"

The Crab gave out an agonizing groan before it stopped struggling, dying on the spot while its mouth bubbled desperately.

"Phew…" Zephy sighed in relief, and then realized he had finally slain a monster without so much fear. "I-I did it!"

"You did it!" I celebrated. "However… there\'s tons more coming from all around!"

"Uwaah!" Zephy felt overwhelmed as ten more Crabs were slowly making their way to attack him.

Don\'t worry, little brother, your big sis is here to help you out.

"Curse, help me out. [Ancient Curse]"

Using Curse\'s aid, we conjured a curse over all the crabs, weakening their stats by around -25%. A good enough debuff for them. Meanwhile, channeling Alice\'s powers…

"Alice, help me out too. [Body Reinforcement]"

F L A S H!

Zephy\'s body quickly grew stronger for a bit thanks to this spell, Alice matched the spell\'s light element, so it was perfect.

"Alright Zephy, you\'ve got a big advantage, I know you can do it!"

"O-Okay!"
